The aim of this study was to describe Child Health Service (CHS) nurses' experiences with conducting individual parental conversations (IPCs) with non-birthing parents.
CHS nurses in Sweden mainly focus on monitoring a child's physical and mental development and the mothers' health in order to support their parenthood. The assignment of the CHS includes identifying dysfunctional social relationships in a family and strengthening responsive parenting. An imbalance arises within the family when someone in the family suffers from illness, which could have a negative effect on the whole family's health and well-being.
An inductive, descriptive qualitative study design was used to describe and to gain an understanding of the CHS nurses' experiences. Data were collected in 13 interviews, and a qualitative content analysis was performed.
The analysis of interviews with CHS nurses resulted in two main categories, each with three subcategories. The main categories are: working for equality and applying a family focus, and dealing with challenges in the developing assignment. The IPCs stimulate the CHS nurses to work for more equality and to apply a family focus, which can be a way of strengthening the families' health and the children's upbringing. Developing the CHS nurses' assignment can be a challenge that appears to entail positive outcomes for CHS nurses, while also generating the need for CHS nurses to receive supervision to find ways to improve their approach and practice.
本研究旨在描述儿童保健服务(CHS)护士与非分娩父母进行个体家长谈话(IPC)的经验。
瑞典的 CHS 护士主要专注于监测儿童的身心发展以及母亲的健康,以支持他们的育儿工作。CHS 的任务包括识别家庭中功能失调的社会关系,并加强响应式育儿。当家庭中的某个人患病时,家庭内部会出现不平衡,这可能对整个家庭的健康和幸福产生负面影响。
采用归纳式、描述性定性研究设计来描述和理解 CHS 护士的经验。通过 13 次访谈进行数据收集,并进行了定性内容分析。
对 CHS 护士访谈的分析产生了两个主要类别,每个类别又有三个子类别。主要类别是:为平等而努力和关注家庭,以及应对发展任务中的挑战。IPC 促使 CHS 护士努力实现更多的平等,并关注家庭,这可以成为加强家庭健康和儿童养育的一种方式。发展 CHS 护士的任务可能是一个挑战,这似乎对 CHS 护士带来积极的结果,同时也需要 CHS 护士接受监督,寻找改善方法和实践的途径。
